"Small place but very nice experience overall! The hotel itself has some basic amenities so you don’t have to worry about running out of water or needing to grab a quick coffee. Location is a few minutes walk from the subway and gwangjang market - very convenient! There are also other stores outside and near the building so you pretty much have a lot of options. Will definitely book this place back when I visit SorKor again in a few years!"
